Fisk in more trouble: Inmate charged with assault while in jail
|
Fisk, 26, is charged with assault for an incident involving Warren County jailer Justin King last Monday in D-block, where Fisk is being held pending trial. He was bound to the grand jury on the charge Tuesday.
Fisk reportedly became upset because the phones were not working in the cell block. At that point King reportedly told Fisk to calm down and go back to his cell, at which time the inmate stopped and said ?make me? to the officer.
It was as the officer was attempting to make Fisk return to his cell that King said he was struck twice by the inmate, once in the head and once in the face.
After being restrained by King and other officers, Fisk reportedly threatened the officer saying he had friends who would ?handle it.?
Fisk is in jail on charges of attempted first-degree murder for allegedly shooting a Sparta man on Sparta Highway just before Christmas last year. The man, David Estrada, was struck in the side when Fisk allegedly pulled beside the car in which he was a passenger and opened fire. Estrada has recovered from his wounds
Investigators also believe Fisk randomly shot at a house near his family?s home around the time of the drive-by shooting, something which terrorized the area as lawmen believed they had a serial shooter just before Christmas of last year. Fisk has not confessed but has said he will take the blame for the crimes.
It was while waiting for trial on the attempted murder charge that lawmen found pills and marijuana inside Fisk?s cell when they did a surprise shakedown. This crime is also a felony.
